Tatak ng Apa na Along (Mark of Four Waves) is a group of Filipino and Pacific Islanders who are reviving the authentic traditional Filipino tattoos. Members come from all walks of life - professionals, students, artists, etc. After much research into their ancestry, Tribe elders prepare their patterns and begin the process of tattooing. The Tribe has a tattoo studio and gallery in Stanton, CA.
